Mercuryhime: Haha, thank you for the heads up! I’m looking forward to that even more now!

I’m fortunate enough to have the free trial samples soon too (endless thanks, Verdant!) but… and perhaps it’s a strange, fussy sentiment, but I felt like my first Verdant cup had to be that beloved Laoshan Black.

Made an order for Nina’s Paris tea through Laurent. I couldn’t wait any longer! Super excited to get it.

Have you ever gotten a craving for a really specific flavor blend? The other night I was absolutely dying for a vanilla rose blend—I could mix together my own, but half vanilla and half rose just isn’t the same as a base that’s been blended with both flavors. There are pretty much only two options and I went with Zhi Tea because they have cheaper shipping and a couple other blends I want to try!

Vanilla Rose
Coconut Assam
White Rose
Saigon Rose

All sample sized! The Saigon Rose is a lemon/rose blend which is another flavor I’ve wanted for a while.
